Hi Cindy,

Thanks for giving this answer! It helped me solve my problem (I was coding in C# and needed an RGB color), and could do it easily using your solution.

I copied the following from the VSTO forum some time ago:

"You can't directly convert a System.Drawing.Color value to?its WdColor
equivalent.? The Font.Color property can be set to a WdColor value or the
result of the?VB RGB function.??The Microsoft.VisualBasic.Information.RGB()
method duplicates this function.? So you can do the following:

Code Snippet
rng.Font.Color = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdColor)
Microsoft.VisualBasic.Information.RGB(0, 112, 192);


Note that this requires you reference?the Microsoft.VisualBasic assembly?from
your project.

You can also use the System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.ToOle() method.? This
doesn't require the reference to the Microsoft.VisualBasic assembly."

How to set Word color in c#? The only colors that I am able to set in Word
are in enumeration WdColor.
Word.WdColor color = Word.WdColor.wdColorTurquoise;

How can I set in c# shadings that are not in enumeration, for example
???Blue, Accent 1????


Thank you.

In VBA, you can use:

Selection.Range.Font.Color = RGB(10, 60, 165)

I believe RGB is a VB function.

I do not know if there is an equivalent in C#.
This is a VBA group after all...

Try in:
microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.csharp

The 2007 Theme Colors are not RGB values. The whole thing is described here:
http://www.wordarticles.com/Articles/Colours/2007.htm (well, maybe not the
whole thing yet, but it should be enough) - it gives VBA code but you can
use the same hex values in any language.

Enjoy,

Ha! I just noticed the "2007" in the poster alias...
I had just focused on the subject line...
I don't have 2007 on my machine at work and I am not all that good with
C#... Should've stayed away!

Thanks for jumping in!
